I haven't been able to get my head around the advantages of Dutch clips yet. The weight advantage seems negligible to me.... I use the Black Diamond Oz carabiners and love them. 28g each and they clip to the edge of my hammock stuff sack for quick deployment. Price for two would be pretty comparable to dutch clips.

my WB Carabiners are 1.6oz/pair, 10$/pair and will stay on my webbing. The dutch clip is hooked to the webbing and wont stay with the webbing when the hammock is untied.. so lets say my platypus is filled with red wine, and I pack my hammock in a hurry.. i can loose a dutch clip in the woods, cant loose my carabiners. I still love the Dutch clips concept either way!

OH NOOOOO .... clipped in the loop and a couple of hand stitches snugged up against it and the DC is as secure as can be ... works perfectly!
